Douluo Continent, I, Huo Yuhao, defy fate with my spiritual eyes.

Poseidon's Pavilion, inside the Golden Tree.

The elders sat around a large table, with Mu En at the head of the table and Huo Yuhao beside him.

Since Huo Yuhao appeared, the number of Sea God Pavilion meetings they have held has exceeded the total number of meetings held in the previous ten years combined.

The main topic of today's meeting at the Sea God Pavilion is to confirm Huo Yuhao's identity.

After all, Huo Yuhao has already obtained the status of the Holy Son of the Body Sect. If Shrek Academy does not continue to invest, it is hard to guarantee that Huo Yuhao will not lean towards the Body Sect in the future.

Without a doubt, Huo Yuhao passed the vote unanimously.

Yan Shaozhe's figure was hidden among the crowd, his expression difficult to discern in the shadows.

He was once the strongest contender for the position of the next Sea God Pavilion Master, but now Huo Yuhao has suddenly appeared and taken his place.

It wasn't that he didn't want to see the younger generation achieve something, but Yan Shaozhe still had a certain yearning for the supreme power that Shrek Academy, the strongest force in the world, held.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that it was precisely because of this kind of thinking that his progress in strength was hindered.

He was too obsessed with power. This caused him to forget one thing: in the Douluo Continent, strength is the best foundation for power.

Strength produces power, and power can only be maintained by relying on strong strength.

This is why Mu En wanted to promote Huo Yuhao to the position of Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, and all the elders immediately agreed to the proposal.

Because Mu En is powerful enough, as the only Limit Douluo of Shrek Academy, he is a guarantee of Shrek Academy's status.

Huo Yuhao also has the potential to become a Limit Douluo in the future. As for whether he can handle Shrek Academy's affairs well, what does it matter? Aren't there many elders here?

As long as Huo Yuhao's strength is enough to lead Shrek Academy to remain the number one in the world, all other problems can be easily solved.

"I am nearing my end, and I think it is time to slowly hand over the responsibility of the Sea God Pavilion Master to the next one. Let Yuhao serve as the acting Pavilion Master for a while."

Moon's words caused a sensation in the Sea God Pavilion.

Although he is called the acting pavilion master, it is actually just handing over the position to Huo Yuhao in advance. However, Mu En will continue to be in charge, giving Huo Yuhao time to grow.

Huo Yuhao had just established himself as the young master of the Sea God Pavilion when Mu En began to delegate power, which undoubtedly showed his complete trust in and cultivation of Huo Yuhao.

Yan Shaozhe swayed, his face showing disbelief.

By what right? By what right does Huo Yuhao, a mere child, obtain such supreme power?

Although he has great talent, it will take the future to realize it.

He believed that Mu En could not have been unaware of the immense risks involved, yet Mu En directly handed over the power to Huo Yuhao.

What does all his hard work over the years amount to?

Overwhelmed by anger, Yan Shaozhe abruptly stood up.

"I disagree!"

The sudden questioning silenced all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

Mu En looked over with his dim eyes and saw that it was Yan Shaozhe. Mu En did not show much surprise, as if he had expected it.

Yan Shaozhe suddenly felt a chill run through his body.

"What's your opinion?"

Despite Mu En's kind tone, Yan Shaozhe felt as if he were seeing a giant dragon grinning at him.

However, he still decided to muster the courage to make a final stand, not only for himself but also for the future of Shrek.

If you put a greenhorn in power, what kind of decisions can he make?

Especially in such turbulent times, a single misstep could plunge Shrek into a quagmire.

Yan Shaozhe comforted himself.

"Junior Brother is still too young and needs more time to cultivate. It's not good to let him get involved in these matters too early!"

That's a good excuse.

Huo Yuhao, weren't you nurtured because of your potential? So why don't you spend your time realizing that potential, but instead focus on vying for power and profit? Is that a good thing?

As expected, some of the elders hesitated after hearing this.

At that moment, someone unexpectedly spoke up.

"If age can determine everything, then I should be qualified to become the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, right?"

The speaker was none other than Mr. Shu Juan, the most senior member of the Sea God Pavilion, who looked weary and impatient.

Ever since Huo Yuhao brought a large number of immortal herbs back to Shrek Academy, this old gentleman has had a lot of material to study.

Her goodwill towards Huo Yuhao also skyrocketed, and she stepped forward to speak up at this moment.

Yan Shaozhe fell silent. Shu Juan could be considered the head of the Sea God Pavilion in terms of seniority and experience, but your combat power is utterly pathetic...

But how could he say it?

To say it out loud would be disrespectful to the seniors, and I would be branded as someone who doesn't respect teachers.

He could only force a smile.

"Mr. Shu, you..."

Shu Juan didn't want to listen to his nonsense and said directly.

"Although Xiao Huo is young, his decision-making ability and forward-thinking ideas are evident to all, and he has made significant contributions to Shrek Academy. Doesn't that prove it?"

He participated in the Continental Soul Master Competition, desperately collected immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and even eased the relationship between Shrek Academy and Body Sect.

"Moreover, he still has a soul spirit he wants to cooperate with the Star Dou Great Forest on. This is something that will change the world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing both political and social order). If he doesn't give Huo Yuhao power and resources, does Shrek Academy expect him to handle it all by himself?"

Shu Juan's words exploded like a machine gun, and the old man's wavering thoughts settled back down.

Yes, Huo Yuhao has made so many contributions in just a few years. His talent and decision-making are beyond doubt. What else is there to worry about?

Seeing that the elders had all switched their attitudes to support Huo Yuhao, Yan Shaozhe's face darkened. Although he remained amiable, the veins on his hands, which were gripping the table tightly, were bulging.

"But what about strength? The Sea God Pavilion Master has never had a fifth-ring Pavilion Master! Although Huo Yuhao has great potential, potential is still just potential, not strength."

He argued forcefully, believing that this was indeed Huo Yuhao's fatal flaw. Even if the Fifth Ring Pavilion Master was only acting, he would not have any deterrent effect and would only make people look down on Shrek Academy.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao, who had been sitting to the side, stood up, bowed respectfully, and smiled, revealing a set of big white teeth.

"Since Senior Brother Yan has some reservations, may I prove myself with my abilities?"

He had remained silent earlier because he wanted to observe the attitudes of the other members of the Sea God Pavilion.

His future goal was to control an entire continent, and he didn't want anyone under his command who refused to obey his orders.

He had been worried that no one would stand up and disagree at the meeting, but after he became the acting head of the pavilion, he was treated like a child.

Now that Shu Juan has pointed out her contribution, Yan Shaozhe can demonstrate his strength by opposing her. The position of Pavilion Master must be given to him, whether he wants to or not!
